The Controlled Antegrade and Antegrade Tracking (CAAT) technique for left main trunk bifurcation divided by a flap-like structure
29 Jan 2021
The authors present a case of PCI for left main trunk bifurcation divided by a flap-like structure in a 67-year-old man suffering from effort angina, in which they successfully used a novel tracking technique by modifying the reverse controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking (CART), which they called...

Optimal left main bifurcation stenting technique: a patient-centred approach - Session with LIVE case
Watch this session if you want to learn how to adapt left main treatment strategy to the underlying anatomy, to understand when a two-stent strategy should be selected, to learn tips and tricks of the TAP stenting technique and to discuss how to solve technical difficulties at...
Safety of Revascularization Deferral of Left Main Stenosis Based on Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio Evaluation
05 Aug 2020
The main message appears to be that iFR-based deferral of LM revascularization is not linked to an excessive risk of MACE during 30-month median follow-up. Given the historical predominance of angiography-based decision making, this study provides further evidence in support of thinking and acting beyond angiography...
